The Member of Parliament for Subin, Eugene Boakye Antwi, has detailed the reasons behind the removal of Osei Kyei-Mensah-Bonsu as Majority Leader, alleging that Gabby Asare Otchere-Darko was the mastermind behind it.
According to Boakye Antwi, Gabby Asare Otchere-Darko spearheaded Kyei-Mensah-Bonsu’s removal because he mistakenly believed that the former Majority Leader was eyeing the position of Minister of Finance — a claim Boakye Antwi insists is untrue.
Speaking in an interview on Oyerepa TV, Boakye Antwi explained that after a group of MPs held a press conference under the banner “Ken Must Go,” Osei Kyei-Mensah-Bonsu was wrongly accused of being involved in the movement, which was not the case.
“Kyei-Mensah-Bonsu was removed after the ‘Ken Must Go’ press conference. They sacked him because he came to my house. Ghana’s Prime Minister said certain things, and in the end, it was linked back to the Majority Leader. Gabby Otchere-Darko falsely believed that Kyei-Mensah-Bonsu wanted the finance minister position,” Boakye Antwi narrated.
He further stated that “Gabby is a liar. Osei Kyei-Mensah-Bonsu was never behind the ‘Ken Must Go’ issue. Gabby even called me to his house, and I told him to record whatever I was saying. During our conversation, we made it clear that we wanted an MP to be the finance minister. Gabby assumed it was Osei Kyei-Mensah-Bonsu.”
